New Look and a Happy Birthday
I have a friend who loves flowers as much as I do. She is gentle, generous, optimistic, funny, talented…. and so I bought these today for her, to wish her a happy birthday. Joyeux anniversaire Helen!
I also wanted to thank Kaytlyn for another lovely banner. What do you think?
I am almost jet-lag free and working on new recipes that hopefully I will share soon. Thank you!
Looks fantastic!

Jennifer- yes, it’s from anthro. of course! :)

Eating something with “skin” in the name does make me feel slightly like Hannibal Lecter…but I think I’ll power through for these babies.
New banner looks fantastic! Love it!

Thank you very much for your kind words everyone. Glad you like the new look!
Your banner is gorgeous– it is giving me blog envy!
Oooh, I like this banner very much. In fact, I like it more than the last one!
A lovely new look for summer!
Simply amazing!!! Colors are stunning.
The best thing is the feeling that you give to people when they read your blog… After each post I wish to have that type of life, cook, travel and simply enjoy. Thank you for that!
Aran, I love your new banner. I love the lacey swishes and how they just float over the top. Very ethereal. Absolutely lovely.
you absolutely have the most beautiful pix among all the amazing food blogs! And it’s such a inspiration for me as a newbie starting my own food blog couple months ago. I myself probably love food, cooking, flowers and photography as much as you do, but there’s definitely sooo much I can learn from you. Please check out my blog and leave your precious comment there!=)
That is really really nice of you. I too get flowers on my birthdays from my close friends and colleagues. I usually keep those at my place for long days till they look fresh.
